JTF...

Netjets DOES train EVS approaches down to 100' for the Global program, but it hasn't gone live online yet. I don't know if it will be limited to US only once all the way approved. I'm curious how long it will take before EVS to the ground is approved.

Most likely only in the USA... We have EVS on all our Globals and Transport Canada never approved/certified it on the Globals up here in Canada.

A US operator could not take EVS credit to shoot an approach down to 100' AGL here in Canada.

Not sure what the status of EVS is like in Europe.

With better an improved EVS systems (like the one on the 6000) and with synthetic vision being overlaid, I think it will be possible to land without visual reference in the future and I think the FAA just announced something to address this a few weeks ago.
